11 "I am the Good Shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his very life for the sheep. 12 The hired servant--one who is not a shepherd and does not own the sheep--no sooner sees the wolf coming than he leaves the sheep and runs away; and the wolf worries and scatters them. 13 For he is only a hired servant and cares nothing for the sheep. 14 "I am the Good Shepherd. And I know my sheep and my sheep know me, 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I am laying down my life for the sheep. 16 I have also other sheep--which do not belong to this fold. Those also I must bring, and they will listen to my voice; and they shall become one flock under one Shepherd. John 10:11-16, Weymouth New Testament. Public domain.
